Correcting display on Digital Temp Control

[Jes]

Hello All,
Winter is nearly here. (In near Chicago)
You have been a big help in troubleshooting some problems I've had in the past and for that I'd like to thank you.

Right now, I have another problem.
I own a 1989 Chrysler newyorker with a 3.0 and Auto Climate control. Normally when you adjust the temperature, the display reads in farenheit.
(i.e. 70º, 79º, 80º etc)

One day, out of the sky blue, I was driving and went to turn on the heat and all of a sudden, it started reading at what looked to be Celsius (25º, 26º, 27º etc)

Can anyone tell me what I can do to correct this or do I need to replace the climate control?

Thank you,

Jesse

somewhere on the unit is a button that will switch it off metric

Keep it in Celsius! That's what the normal world does.

No dont get another one, Been along time since i worked on that yr chrysler but there is a certain way to change it back off of celcius, but pushing 2 bottons on the display, if you have an owners manual it will tell you how to do it, if i remember when i go into work tommorro i will look it up for you.

Glenn,
I have the owners manuals and see no mention of how to change it back to US/Farenheight. If you could look it up and email me back, I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you,

Jesse

if the rest of the world was normal they would find it easier to get along then to murder people just for breathing

ooopps sorry i missed this post. i dont have that shop manual around anymore, but if you have the manual it says it in there, does this vehicle have the navigator or whatever you call it? and if so is it in metric also?? something on that dash will make it go back to US display, read the manual, it is in there, I just cannot remember how to do it
